AS Tallinna Linnatransport (TLT) has excited many tram fans by putting their old KT4 trams up for sale to the public. Altogether, 15 old Tallinn trams are being sold. Currently, two of them are listed on the osta.ee auction platform (No. 147 and 166).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe KT4 trams have served their time honourably,\u201d says Toomas Hirve<\/strong>, director of the engineering division at TLT. \u201cMany of them were originally built as early as the 1980s. Unfortunately, every vehicle has a limited lifespan and the new PESA trams will soon replace many of the KT4 trams. We have already retired some trams that have seen better days, but we decided to sell those that have stood the test of time. Why scrap a tram that holds so many memories and nostalgia for people when someone out there might be interested in doing something exciting with it?\u201d
TLT has sold old trams at auctions before and they have been put to use in projects ranging from caf\u00e9s, offices and even shelters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of the new PESA trams is set to arrive in Tallinn this May, after which they will immediately start test drives. Before they can be used by the public, the new trams must complete a 1000-kilometre test drive in real road conditions.
